"Xglas is China copycat. Definitely not same. " - sang_kanchil That's the general mentality of the forumers here. You guys pay more and convince yourself you're getting the real deal. Read this review from Gadgetmac for the Colorant USG ITG Tempered Glass iPhone 5 Screen Protector. Link : http://www.gadgetmac.com/reviews/colorant-...otector-re.htmlI'd like to highlight this paragraph from you... "If you've read our review on Spigen's Glas.t, then you pretty much know everything there is to know about the USG Impossible Tempered Glass. The two are so similar to one another that it leads me to believe both are made under the same manufacturing plant only packaged under different brands. In terms of performance, the [B]USG ITG screen protector is everything Spigen's popular Glas.t series is but at the same cost. You can pick one up for $28, and the only difference you should be looking at when deciding which of the two brands to settle with is quite frankly the two extra little home button stickers you get with the Glas.t. As much as that sounds ridiculous.[/b]" xGlas is obtained from the same manufacturing plant as Glas.T yet priced almost 50% cheaper  But it doesn't matter ... in the end it's the consumer who decides how much one is willing to spend for the packaging This post has been edited by s3an_looi: Dec 25 2012, 10:01 AM

Since more than USD199.00, got half delivery charge USD15.00. To think back, should have use the 10% rebate instead of aiming for half delivery price. Received & taxed by RM79.80 after exactly 1 month ordered from EC. Total overall cost RM763.50.

So each one just USD 100 ? Got so cheap ? What is EC. They shouldn't charge after 1 months

Another 1 the cheapest Vapor COMP for my wife ip4S USD59.99. That charge is by local custom taxed. Fedex will paid upfront to the custom & later collect back from us during delivery.

I would like to ask you a question, have YOU ever tried xGlas for yourself? If not then don't complain about a product that you have never tried, its like your the type of person that likes to talk c*ck a lot about how suckish is a product that you have not tried in your life and does not even bother to try to prove that your right and it really sucks. I am a xGlas user and after 2 months of use I can say thanks to Sean's xGlas my iPhone never looked so gorgeous, in fact its so gorgeous that I don't use a case anymore! (until I get my dream case which is Element Case's Sector series) People might say I'm mad for not using a case since the iPhone 4 is the most fragile phone ever made (The whole phone is almost covered in glass!) and WILL shatter when dropped, but since xGlas is drop resistant its already like a case minus the bulkiness. Anyway my point is that xGlas is a worthy investment, why? It maintains the glass feel (the feeling when touching xGlas is like touching a new phone's screen that was just unboxed), has an oleophobic coating so its very EASY to clean and does not attract much foreign contaminants, scratchproof (Only sand can make a scratch so watch out for that), drop resistant and easy to install if done correctly. So yeah give xGlas a try and post your results here, never judge a book by its cover  Anyway sorry about the long post but is worth a read if your interested in xGlas and before I forget Merry Christmas y'all, Gunnar.MY out.
